One of the earliest known references to this Feast comes from the diary of a pilgrim named Ethera written in the fourth century. This pilgrim traveled to Jerusalem to take part in the Christmas celebration there and her journal gives a remarkable look into the early Church. Two of the celebrations that she describes are the Feast of the Epiphany and the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord. At this time the Church in Jerusalem celebrated the Birth of Christ at the Feast of the Epiphany, January 6 [Julian Calendar – the liturgical Calendar used by Ukrainian Orthodox around the world] and celebrated the Feast of the Presentation forty days later. As this celebration gained popularity in the West, it was moved from February 15 to February 2 [still Julian Calendar – today is February 15 on the Julian Calendar, which is currently 13 days behind astronomically] because this date was forty days after the solemnity of Christmas, which was when the Western Church celebrated the Birth of Jesus. The roots of this celebration come from the Jewish faith, where a family would present their children in the temple. This celebration did not occur immediately after the birth of the child because the mother was ritually unclean for forty days after childbirth. This tradition is rooted in Mosaic Law which requires "purification" after contact with mystery, especially birth or death. As this feast gained popularity throughout the Church, it also began to develop a rich tradition. One of these traditions comes from the beginning of the eighth century when Pope Sergius normalized a candlelight procession to commemorate the feast. This grew into the tradition in the West of blessing and distribution of candles for the Faithful to take into their homes. Hence this feast is often called by them Candlemas in reference to this tradition of bringing candles to Mass to be blessed. The Ukrainian Orthodox, particularly those in Eastern Ukraine, have the tradition of blessing water on this feast. This "Stritens’ka voda" (The Feast is called "Stritennia" in Ukrainian) is said to be particularly efficacious in removing the effects of the (possibly psychosomatic but in many cultures quite real) malady known as "the evil eye". The theological symbolism of this blessing of water lies in the sanctification of matter by our Lord, Jesus Christ, Who is the Second Person of the Trinity. He was incarnate among us and entered fully into the culture and traditions of His people including ritual purification – even though He was perfectly without sin or stain. Thereby He takes upon Himself our uncleanness and diseases and purifies us and makes us whole. Partaking of this water is symbolically partaking of the drink of the New Creation, the streams of Paradise, which Jesus has re-opened for us. Also we recall that on this occasion Jesus was met by Simeon the God-receiver (whom we commemorate the day after the Feast of the Presentation). The dear old man had been told by an Angel that he would not die until he had held in his arms the Messiah, the little Boy born of a Virgin prophesied in Isaiah 7:14. This happened in the 3rd century B.C.! He is held to be one of the 72 translaters of the Hebrew Bible into Greek, the Septuagint, the official translation used by the Orthodox Church. He had wanted to translate the Hebrew "bethulah" literally by the words "young woman" instead of "virgin" ("parthenos" in Greek). The Angel told him that he himself would hold in his arms this miraculously conceived child. Simeon greeted the Child and celebrated the fulfillment of the Promise with the lovely words we use at every Vespers: "Now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace, O Lord, according to Thy word, for mine eyes have beheld Thy salvation, which Thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples, a light to enlighten the Gentiles and the glory of Thy people Israel" (I am indebted for some of this to The Daily E-Pistle sent by bend@liturgical.com and to the website www.oca.org on Feasts and Saints – igk.) |
